Wasn't expecting too much from this album, mainly because I'd read some lukewarm reviews. Bought it because I liked Waterloo and had tickets to go and see them recently.
Great Album, I really really like. Got some really strong songs on here, as good as Waterloo if you ask me.

Customer rating: 1 out of 5 stars This is just awful

I was worried this album was going to let me down from the start but I can confidently say I'm embaressed to actually own this generic piece of indie piffle. I really hope the band abondon this happy go lucky nonesense and pull it out of the bag next time or Carl might as well give up and be happy that he at least wrote bang bang my more famous friends dead.

If you like The Libertines please dont buy this album it will make you cry. Buy Shotters Nation instead.

If your a libs fan, you'll buy this no matter what. A very different sounding DPT album, more mature, more polished. I like it. Reminds me of the old Libertines Legs 11 demo sessions. Well worth a purchase, but dont expect it to be the sound of the summer!

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars I miss the Libertines

After Babyshambles new album Shotter's nation and Waterloo I finally thought that we had moved on but this album lacks tunes.

Nothing on this album compares to Last of the Smalltown Playboys or Gin & Milk or anything on the previous album. But it is still alright despite the strange noises between each song. What are they all about?

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Everything a great album should be and more...

Waterloo to Anywhere has pretty much been on a loop on my ipod for the past 2 years, so RASN had a lot to live up to. Which makes it all the more meaningful that i love this album as much as i do. Its one of those albums that grows on you with every listen, and does what music is supposed to do - it really makes you feel something, whether its hope when youre feeling down (Truth Begins), anger and frustration (Hippys Son, Buzzards and Crows), or love and longing (Come Closer). Part of this is DPTs witty and intelligent lyrics, part of it is the sincerity, enthusiasm and passion with which it is delivered. In a music industry that seems to have been diluted by non-chalant bands who are all image and no substance, DPT are unique in that they actually seem to really care about their music. Its really hard to pick out the best track, purely because theyre all so good, and all so different from each other - and to me, thats the mark of a really good album

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars Great album but doesn't entirely deliver.

Great album but doesn't entirely deliver. More accoustic, jangly and a little less frantic and aggressive than Waterloo to Anywhere but still filled with DPT signature punk/funk riffs and angry lyrics spat at 100mph.

All together a more mature sounding album but one thats missing the immediate Single release and it distinctly feels like a collection of B-sides at times.

Highly Recommended to any Lib, Shamble or View fans.
